I love this post. It reminded me of how excited I used to be the night my father would bring home the Christmas tree. We were always one of the last to decorate our tree because we used to wait for my oldest sister to come home from College to help. I am glad you have a tree this year as I remember your post just prior to BB being born how you felt melancoly looking at other peoples. Enjoy your tree!
P.s. Sorry for not commenting much recently. I got burgled. Everything ok really, lots to be thankful for. Just not quite myself yet.
I agree with Bethany – Toby in a Santa hat is a classic. I love this time of year – enjoy your beautiful tree, I can’t wait to see how Baby Bug decides it needs to be decorated.
Oh my goodness! Bug is even happier than I am when the Christmas tree comes into my house!! I can’t remember the last time it made me dance!!
Also, Toby in the Santa hat is awesome.
Lovely tree, even lovlier family.
We just got our tree today. Isabelle saw the pictures of yours and said, “I want to decorate.” And when that didn’t give her a response she said, “I want Lena.”
That is such a cute tree! Not too big, not too little. We’re not getting a tree this year because we are leaving to visit the inlaws in Sweden in a week and a half. Oh well. Maybe next year :-)

Oh I love that second picture. That’s pretty much how I feel when the tree is brought in the house.

I’ll bet she can make ornaments with pipe cleaners and beads. I think she has green and red beads.
When she is bigger she will take over the wrapping and decorating (just like her cousins) and you can sit back, watch and relax.

We are going out today to buy our daughter’s first Christmas tree. She’s three weeks old…but a real tree is going to be one of our family traditions!
